I like to see this shift in healthier, safer, more natural ways to keep them
healthy.
Although obviously health plays a big
role...
It's shared with my personal belief that if the dog likes ya enough when something bad DOES haapen... it sure will fight hard & be strong for its human pack members. =)

On the Health Science 101 quiz, the next to last question asked about routine vacs, this was never even mentioned. The only info I obtained was that holistic medicine was a combo of natural ways to heal dogs and traditional medical practices,alittle confusing for me.

Once again, another enjoyable class. I would classify my vet as quasi-holistic. She spends a lot of time on initial visits, recommends appropriate diets and activities and many other things covered in the article, but does recommend a schedule of vaccinations, some of which are mandated.
